You must have just "reconstituted it" today...

The Eco earth will dry out soon, and your humidity will go down a lot.

If you let it, Eco earth will dry out as it was when you got the "brick"

It will just be powdery instead of hard.

I use a lot of Eco earth.... Great stuff.

That's a handsome keelback you have there.

That is one gorgeous snake. I really like! Darn, darn, another for my list.... I LOOVE the "zebra stripes" on the tummy!!

I can't believe you found these at Petco! Is he eating for you yet?

Nice looking snake! Just a word of warning..... Xenochrophis vittata can often be heavily parasitised, when first acquired. Might be worth a check-up.
